Squirrel Acorn C2C Crochet Mosaic Pattern
Bring the charm of the woodland into your next crochet project with the Squirrel Acorn C2C Crochet Mosaic Pattern.
This detailed two-color design features a sweet woodland squirrel holding an acorn, framed by oak leaves, hanging acorns, mushrooms and decorative forest foliage.

INCLUDED C2C CROCHET GUIDE
The included English reference guide uses US crochet terms and explains the diagonal box crochet method.
It covers:
• Making the first C2C block
• Increasing along diagonal rows
• Joining neighboring blocks
• Reaching the longest diagonal
• Decreasing
• Reading pixel charts
• Color changes
• Common troubleshooting
The first block begins with ch 6, with the first three chains acting as the turning chain and the remaining chains worked with double crochet to create the first square. diagonal_box_crochet_pixel_patt…
After reaching the longest diagonal, the guide explains how decreasing begins by turning and slip-stitching inward instead of adding another outside block. diagonal_box_crochet_pixel_patt…
TWO-COLOR CREAM & FOREST GREEN DESIGN
The original PDF pattern uses:
Cream + Forest Green
This earthy color combination works especially well with the squirrel and woodland theme.
Forest Green defines the squirrel, acorns, oak leaves, mushrooms and botanical elements against the soft Cream background.
Because the pattern uses only two colors, you can also customize the design with your own preferred combination.
Possible alternatives include:
Cream + Rust
Ivory + Moss Green
Beige + Dark Brown
Warm White + Burgundy
Cream + Terracotta
Ivory + Deep Forest Green
The supplied PDF instructions themselves use Cream and Forest Green.

The complete composition includes:
Woodland squirrel • Large curled tail • Acorn held by the squirrel • Oak branch • Oak leaves • Hanging acorns • Mushrooms • Forest foliage • Additional acorn motif • Botanical ground details
